Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
3. The method of claim 1, further comprising, in response to completely draining the SRQ, sending an acknowledgement signal to said another processing element via the interconnect.
4. The method of claim 1, wherein the delay is proportional to an amount of time required for a propagation of the TLBI instruction from said another processing element to the processing element via the interconnect.
5. The method of claim 1, wherein the delay is based on a product of a number of cycles it takes to drain each entry in the SRQ and a size of the SRQ.
6. The method of claim 1, wherein a number of cycles in the delay is based on a random number between one to a multiple of the size of the SRQ.
9. The computing system of claim 7, wherein the second processing element is configured to, in response to completely draining the SRQ, send an acknowledgement signal to the first processing element via the interconnect.
10. The computing system of claim 7, wherein the delay is proportional to an amount of time required for a propagation of the TLBI instruction from the first processing element to the second processing element via the interconnect.
11. The computing system of claim 7, wherein the delay is based on a product of a number of cycles it takes to drain each entry in the SRQ and a size of the SRQ.
12. The computing system of claim 7, wherein a number of cycles in the delay is based on a random number between one to a multiple of the size of the SRQ.
13. The computing system of claim 12, wherein the one or more execution units includes a random number generator configured to generate the random number.
14. The computing system of claim 13, wherein the random number generator is implemented by one or more linear feedback shift registers.
17. The processing element of claim 15, wherein the one or more LSUs are configured to, in response to completely draining the SRQ, sending an acknowledgement signal to said another processing element via the interconnect.
18. The processing element of claim 15, wherein the delay is proportional to an amount of time required for a propagation of the TLBI instruction from said another processing element to the processing element via the interconnect.
19. The processing element of claim 15, wherein the delay is based on a product of a number of cycles it takes to drain each entry in the SRQ and a size of the SRQ.
20. The processing element of claim 15, wherein a number of cycles in the delay is based on a random number between one to a multiple of the size of the SRQ.
